fall into the gap (and the proposal)

Monday, June 22, 2009

this is a special weekend recap post because i'm recapping last thursday night as well as my weekend because what happened to me on thursday is just too good to pass up.

a fabulously friendly woman named justine from the LA based brand about town contacted me and a couple of otherclevelandbased blogs on behalf of the gap. yes, THE gap. basically justine has been traveling around the country talking to a select group of bloggers looking to choose some as 'gap brand enthusiasts'.

funny the way that worked out because i just so happened to work at gap for almost five years. it was my first job at 17 and to say i drank the kool-aid during my time there would be an understatement. i thought (and still think) the gap was the coooooooolest.

so you could say i was excited when i got the email, and more than willing to meet up with justine and see what she had to say.

When I think of GAP, I always think of that Seinfeld where Elaine thinks she's dating an ethnic guy and the guy thinks she's ethnic too. Then, when they find out they're both white, the guy says to Elaine, "So, we're just a couple of white people? What do we do now?" And Elaine shrugs and says, "Wanna go to the GAP?"
